Note that when using the automatic picture system, first create an account, otherwise you will not receive the picture. Besides, it is a very nice view over a valley and on the Mont Blank.

Breathtaking views across the Alps, with as the highlight the Mont Blanc. Tip: with your ski pass you can make a photo of yourself.

Good viewpoint that juts out over the valley. There's a camera there that takes a photo of you if you bleep your ski pass against it. Then you go to a little phone booth looking thing and put in your email address and it sends it to you for free!
